Let me tell to you about Forrest Gump the movie that was released before 2000 and starring Tom Hanks and This movie is one of those things that when you watch it you feel like you haveve lived another life not just two hours and thats it.
The beginning of the story
Listen sir the movie begins with a white feather flying in the air and this is a scene that when you watch it you feel like youve entered the atmosphere of the movie before anyone speaks This feather lands next to Forrest Gump the kind simple man sitting on a bench waiting for the bus He starts telling his story to the people sitting next to him and everyone sits listening in surprise and you as a viewer transform into one of those sitting and listening with him.
Forrest was a boy who had a problem with his legs when he was young and people used to make fun of him But his mother always used to say to him A fool does stupid things This word works with him throughout the movie Forrest was never a genius nor did he have big ambitions but he had a good heart and pure intentions and thats what made him succeed in many things
He ran fast when he was young joined the army went to the Vietnam War became an Olympic champion entered the stock market and opened a shrimp business all while being himself Forrest Gump.
In the midst of all this there are people who greatly influenced his life:
- Jenny the love of his life but her life was complicated and their relationship was always complicated
- Lieutenant Dan the man who lost his legs in the war and was initially broken but Forrest was the reason he changed his outlook on life
- Bubba his friend in the army whose dream was to start a shrimp business and Forrest continued the dream after he died
This movie does not have action or big surprises but its full of feelings Its a movie about simplicity How can someone with a pure heart reach things that many people cant reach While watching you feel like you're taking a quiet lesson about life about how you do not have to be a genius to succeed and that the good you do comes back to you even after a while.
Tom Hanks performance
Tom Hanks honestly gave a performance that makes you feel like youre not watching an actor this is Forrest for real With every movement every look every word you feel that he is a really simple person and thats what made the movie touch peoples hearts.
The kind of movie that when it ends you will remain silent for a while look at the ceiling and say The world is really simple but were the ones who complicate it A movie that reminds you that life is not a race and that you can reach really beautiful things if you go your own way even if you are different from other people.
